Professional Cutlery Hire for London Events
Quality cutlery is one of the details that guests notice, even if they cannot quite put their finger on why the table feels right. Flimsy, mismatched or disposable cutlery undermines even the finest catering. Our Olympia stainless steel cutlery range solves that problem — every piece is weighty, polished and designed for professional event service.
Whether you are planning a seated wedding breakfast in Kensington, a charity gala dinner in the City of London, or a corporate awards evening in Canary Wharf, our cutlery hire service delivers across all London boroughs. We regularly supply events in Westminster, Hackney, Islington, Camden, Shoreditch, Southwark, Greenwich, Richmond, Wandsworth, Tower Hamlets and beyond.
The Olympia Cutlery Range
Our cutlery collection is drawn entirely from the Olympia range, a trusted name in commercial hospitality. Every piece features a mirror-polished finish, comfortable weight in the hand, and the durability to withstand high-volume event service.
Dinner Knife (231mm) — A full-sized table knife for main courses. The balanced handle and polished blade make it equally suited to formal dinners and relaxed celebrations.
Dinner Fork (200mm) — A classic four-prong table fork. Sleek, polished and perfectly proportioned for any main course.
Dessert Knife (214mm) — Elegant Olympia dessert knives, perfect for serving desserts and lighter courses. Featuring a sleek, polished finish, they add a refined touch to any table setting.
Dessert Fork (185mm) — Stylish Olympia dessert forks, ideal for cakes and desserts. Designed with a polished finish, they pair perfectly with our full cutlery range.
Dessert Spoon (180mm) — A polished dessert spoon with a smooth, balanced design. Essential for any pudding course and equally useful for starters served in bowls.
Building a Place Setting
The cutlery you need depends entirely on your menu. A simple two-course meal might require just a dinner knife, dinner fork and dessert spoon. A three-course formal dinner typically calls for a dinner knife, dinner fork, dessert knife, dessert fork and dessert spoon — five pieces per guest.
There is no need to hire pieces you will not use. Every item is priced individually, so you have complete control over your order and your budget. If you are unsure what to include, get in touch and we will recommend the right combination based on your menu.
Combine with Plates and Glassware
For a complete place setting, add our Athena white porcelain plates and our glassware range. Hiring everything from a single supplier means one delivery, one collection and one point of contact — far simpler than coordinating multiple vendors. Our full cutlery set hire, combined with plates and glasses, gives your tables a cohesive, professional look that impresses guests and makes life easier for your catering team.
